"Hedgelawn" as it was renamed in 1902 encompasses the main house, a detached building with fireplace and loft, a detached shed, a barn like storage and workshop building and a 2 bedroom cottage. In the 18th century, the property was know as Bleak Hall. The original house was constructed between 1725 and 1740 and was built as a story and half hall parlor plan as it exemplified early Virginia architecture traditions. It was considered a mansion at the time. The house was expanded in 1837 and the garden room connects the two. The estate is rich in Civil War history and during it's occupation by Union forces was used as a hospital. The main house has 5 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, 6 fireplaces, heart pine wide plank floors and plenty of daylight gleaming from the historic glass windows. Even though you will feel like you have stepped back in time, there are modern conveniences including gas heat and central air conditioning and cleverly hidden kitchen appliances. There is a live spring at the northend of the property. Zoned A!, the possibilities are endless! (school, church, camp, (sandy loam - great for crops). This is a must see. Bring your imagination or use the property as is!
